How to restore a deleted domain
-
Good Day,

Hey there @justicefordemetriusminor, I split your request into a new thread.
Would you like the site and the domain restored, or just the domain?
We’ll want to act quickly before the domain goes into redemption, so let us know as soon as you can:

I think we were hacked so we’d like everything restored to the way it was before yesterday.
-
More info at the other forum post. It looks like someone transferred the website and domain to a different account before deleting it.

If someone is able to and transfer and delete a wordpress.com website, it means they have full access to and your wordpress.com account and your email address. If so, it’s time to thighten security of your wordpress.com account by activating 2FA – https://en.support.wordpress.com/security/two-step-authentication/.
If possible do the same for your email account. -
Got it, I’d missed that other request somehow, and since this one was split off of somebody else’s thread, we missed that it was duplicate. No worries. I know you were just panicked!
I don’t see any evidence of a transfer, but I did see the domains and site were all deleted. I was able to restore the domains, the site, and its other upgrades for you.
I’d recommend increasing security, too, by changing your password and adding 2FA as @staartmees recommended. If you have any questions about that, please let us know!
